The wife wants me to buy her some cleaning technology to make her job a little easier. She asked for a battery vacuum that can take batteries for a quick suck before she mops.

I already own some Makita tools and Milkwakee so I have a bunch of spare batteries she can mooch from. What stick vacuumn technology should I get her so she can clean our house?

I remember seeing Dyson vacuum cleaners can take Makita batteries, if I'm not mistaken. Maybe you can find an image that confirms Dyson vacuums can take Makita batteries somewhere to be sure

Don't get a Dyson. Just had a v15's motor burn out, a year after the warranty ran out. Took it apart, loads of internal voids that collect mountains of dust between the prefilter and motor module, which turns out is a sealed unit that is a total bitch to open up. I can even see the copper coils through the perforations but can't access them without butchering the whole thing. Dyson just replaces the whole body if there's an issue with the motor, out of warranty - £160, which just a scam in my opinion. Overpriced crap, fuck them.

Instead, For £210 - not much more than the replacement dyson body, I've been considering the makita 40v CL004G, since I already have XGT batteries. Powered head, optional hepa filter, 3 year warranty. Small collection bin, but can just be emptied more often and I know every part will be available for replacement at reasonable price.

Dyson is made for 20V batteries like DeWalt uses. With 18V you have shorter run time and the motor doesn't get up to full speed in turbo mode. I think LG and Shark have ones with swappable batteries. As long as you have two it should be fine.

What's up with this utter aversion to cords?

You waste less time vacuuming if you're not constantly plugging and unplugging it. It's a decent qol upgrade.
